The most appropriate personnel selection is a very important issue for an organization’s success due to the increasing competition in global market. Traditionally, Saaty’s consistency method is used to check the consistency of the experts’ judgments in personnel selection problem and the inconsistency judgments can be sent to return to the experts for reevaluation, which is time consuming and sometimes undesired by experts, or can be extracted from decision making process. A perfect multiplicative consistent intuitionistic preference relation (IPR) will be repaired the inconsistent IPRs of the experts into a consistent one automatically. There is no paper about personnel selection using integrated intuitionistic fuzzy analytic hierarchy process method (IFAHP)-IFVIKOR (intuitionistic fuzzy VlseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje) approach under group decision making with perfect multiplicative consistent IPR. This paper presents an integrated multi-criteria decision making method for personnel selection with perfect multiplicative consistent IPR under intuitionistic fuzzy environment. Priority value of criteria has been defined by utilizing IFAHP method and the most appropriate personnel among candidates has been found by utilizing intuitionistic fuzzy VIKOR. The application of personnel selection is conducted to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method in a logistic firm. The personel selection is realized according to a questionnaire responded by three experts in human resources management area. Five criteria for personel selection are defined through literature review and the judgments of expert team. K1 (self-confidence) is defined as the most important criteria for personnel selection of the specified logistic firm by using IFAHP. Alt3 is defined as the most suitable personnel for the specified logistic firm by using IFVIKOR.
